I'm not saying that you shouldn't give feed back. Please do, but refrain if all your feed back is going to do is spread negativity or ruin the experiment for others.
What do you even get from obsessing over a show so much that you have to go watch every thing related to it; repeats, hotstar, polls and what not. I'm sorry but spending majority of your time obsessing over a TV show and then cry over time lost is your liability. No second person, be it the actors, the show, audience, production house or anyone else is responsible for it - it's just you. Not 'bashing you or attacking you', but lack of time management from a viewers end is not their concern. As you said, they get paid from it and you do. So please spend your time doing something productive that will benefit you in life.
Following actors on social media, fan voting, award functions, Internet polls, sending gifts to actors, celebrating their events I believe is done put of love and appreciation. It's understood that they in return will gain an upper hand, popularity, media coverage and a boost in your career from your doing so. It's not an duty or an obligation. No one promised you anything in return.
If you would have asked me a year ago, I would have agreed that an audience makes an actor. To a point yes, but do understand that in order to attract that audience and maintain the very same audience the artiste works hard. Like any career that's a lot of hard work and dedication involves. I'm sorry but you do not make or break any show. You are not obliged to follow anything if it goes against your liking or nature. To like it or to not like it is up to you, and whatever your decision is its absolutely vain to hold someone else responsible for your loss.
As I said earlier, please do voice out your opinions but on matters that matter as a whole like the current mockery of infertility and the subject of surrogacy; but when it comes to simple matters like Raman raising his voice on Ishita, a flaw in her character in some episode or something that irks you please remember that there are people who watch the show other than you. Disrupting the environment, causing chaos and making this place stressful is not a way to deal with your frustrations. Take some time off. I'm mentioning this collectively and not only to you. No one is perfect, we don't follow a character sketch when it comes to our actions word by word and for a show that runs 24 minutes for 6 days, I don't expect perfection in every scene. This was the latter meaning. Not staying mum about everything but knowing when to voice out instead if causing unwanted chaos and stress.
Sorry if I offended you, but these are my views and I am entitled to share them just like you are to yours.
